A woman puts on her armor before battle. An army of guardians defend their goddess. The enemy wounds the hero, starting a war and handicapping her for eternity. These heroic metaphors create just a dent in Alexander Pope’s satirical epic The Rape of the Lock.

drinking and dressing up. Both Fortunato and Montresor are dressed upped in the story, however, only Fortunato is ever given a depiction of what he was wearing in the story. The narrator tells us of what he sees his friend in, “He had on a tight-fitting parti-striped dress, and his head was surmounted by the conical cap and bells.”(Poe 739). The carnival is a time of joy and merriment that comes, but in the story it’s used as a cover for the murder. The bells on Fortunato is as well a symbol…
